[[[Stylenest, June 2013]]]: Vintage inspired & stylish maternity clothes by In Pig
If you’re looking for stylish maternity clothes with a vintage edge look to newly launched British label, In Pig.
Looking back at old photos of our mothers when pregnant, they looked simultaneously cool and comfy – those supersized smocks, relaxed dungarees and flowing 70s style maxis. If only 2013 maternity wear took note.
Well, vintage enthusiasts, friends and mums, Edwina and Johanna who first met two years ago at an NCT group, thankfully thought the same. The duo’s debut maternity range, In Pig, has just launched and it’s brimming with that same vintage charm worn by bumps of days gone by.
The inaugural Spring Summer 13 collection comprises just four pieces, but realistically if you bought all four you’d have your maternity wardrobe sorted for the next nine months.
There’s the everyday, 70s inspired smock that comes in a choice of retro denim or vintage Liberty print. With an oversized feature collar and large front pockets, paired with some comfy ballet flats this is the perfect dress for weekends with a stylish bump.
Then there’s the belled sleeved crepe dress that’ll channel a sort of Jane Birkin whilst pregnant with Charlotte Gainsbourg type vibe – maternity dressing doesn’t come any chicer. Or, if you require something a little dressier, the 70s inspired maxi dress is ideal for summer weddings or special occasions. Available in forest green, baby blue or classic black, there’s one to suit all.
But it is without a doubt the In Pig denim dungarees that have us cooing here at StyleNest. If you’re a kid of the 70s or 80s you’ll probably remember mum wearing a pair of these. With adjustable straps, soft denim and vintage inspired trims; they’re both super comfy and impeccably cool.
If you’re currently sporting a beautiful bump, show it off in style with In Pig’s gorgeous debut range.
